BACKGROUND

Speech interaction technology is technology that a human interacts with a machine by using a speech, implementing speech interaction experience similar to a natural dialogue. A human-machine interaction ranges from an interaction of a mouse and a keyboard with a screen in the computer era to a direct interaction of a touch screen in the intelligent phone era. A human-machine interaction mode becomes simple, and an interaction threshold is getting lower and lower. With rapid development of artificial intelligence and mobile Internet, a natural speech interaction similar to an interaction between the human and the other human has gradually become a new way of the human-machine interaction. The speech interaction has advantages such as a large input bandwidth, high accuracy, good mobility, and low usage threshold, and is one of preferred interaction modes for the human-machine interaction. The human-machine interaction is implemented through the speech interaction, thereby improving an information processing efficiency. At the same time, such speech interaction may enable the interaction between a user and the machine easier. However, there are still problems to be solved during the speech interaction.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Description will be made in detail below to embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to accompanying drawings. Some embodiments of the present disclosure are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. However, it should be understood that, the present disclosure may be implemented in various ways, and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, those embodiments provided are merely for a more thorough and complete understanding of the present disclosure. It should be understood that, the accompanying drawings and embodiments of the present disclosure are merely for exemplary purposes, and are not used to limit the protection scope of the present disclosure.

In the description of embodiments of the present disclosure, terms such as “include” and its equivalents should be understood as an inclusive meaning, i.e. “include but not limited to”. Terms such as “based on” should be understood as “at least partially based on”. Terms such as “an embodiment” or “the embodiment” should be understood as “at least one embodiment”. Terms such as “first”, “second” and the like may represent different or same objects. Other explicit and implicit definitions may also be included below.

During implementing speech interaction, a way for waking up one interaction at a time is basically adopted. The way is a product obtained by combining wake-up word detection technology with a product strategy, with characteristics that: after a user inputs a wake-up word for activating a device, a built-in wake-up word detection module detects a signal of the wake-up word, and starts to recognize and listen. When a speech tail point is detected or a preset time length is reached, the listening is finished, and the speech received is recognized, thereby achieving a procedure for responding to a user requirement.

However, there are a plurality of problems in a current human-machine interaction mode. Firstly, the user needs to wake up the device before each request, which brings a great inconvenience. Secondly, when the user does not talk to the device after waking up the device, the device may respond incorrectly, causing a poor user experience. A key to the problem is how to distinguish whether recognized information is request information initiated to the device, thereby responding to a real request of the user in time and automatically shielding a non-user request. The user experience may be greatly damaged when a request initiated by the user is not responded or a request of a non-human-machine interaction is mistakenly responded. Therefore, how to improve an accuracy for judging the human-machine/non-human-machine interaction is a core issue of a solution for multiple interactions.

According to embodiments of the present disclosure, an improvement solution for the speech interaction is provided. In this solution, by introducing a semantic understanding technology, a semantic result may be derived based on text information of speech recognition. In addition, in combination with an improved semantic understanding model based on a deep neural network and an online real-time intervention mechanism, a semantic result with high accuracy may be obtained. Furthermore, a judgment result of whether the text information is human-machine interaction information or non-human-machine interaction information may be obtained from information such as the above semantic result, a context state, and an acoustic confidence based on the depth neural network. In this solution, it may be determined whether a speech interaction device should respond to an obtained speech signal and a detailed request of the speech signal from a plurality of dimensions, thereby more accurately and intelligently implementing speech interaction control and, improving user experience.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating an exemplary scene 100 in which a plurality of embodiments of the present disclosure may be implemented. In the exemplary scene 100, when a human-machine interaction is performed, an obtained speech signal 110 is transmitted to a management device 120.

The speech signal 110 may be obtained by any speech interaction device that performs interaction with a user. In some embodiments, when the user speaks to the speech interaction device, a speech signal 110 may be obtained. In some embodiments, when the speech interaction device locates around the user, the speech interaction device may obtain the speech signal 110 when the user interacts with others. In some embodiments, the speech signal 110 may also be other speech signal received by the speech interaction device, such as a speech from a television. In some embodiments, the speech signal 110 is obtained by the speech interaction device that performs multiple interactions at one wake-up. The above examples are only for describing the present disclosure and are not detailed limitations to the present disclosure.

The speech interaction device may have an associated sound collector (e.g., one or more microphones) to collect a speech instruction of the user. The speech interaction device may also have an associated sound player (e.g., one or more speakers) to play a sound.

The speech interaction device may be any electronic device capable of controlling and/or interacting through the speech signal. Some examples of the speech interaction device may include, but be not limited to, an intelligent speaker, a speech interaction television box, an intelligent household appliance, a speech home-schooling appliance, an intelligent robot, a map navigation device, an intelligent wearable device, etc. The speech interaction device may also be any electronic device installed with a speech interaction application. The speech interaction application may be such as a speech assistant application, an intelligent car machine system, an information query application, a map application, a social platform application, an audio and video playing application, an intelligent assistant application, etc. Examples of the electronic device on which such speech interactive application may be installed may include, but be not limited to, an intelligent phone, a multimedia computer, a multimedia tablet, an Internet node, a communicator, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a notebook computer, a netbook computer, a tablet computer, a personal navigation device, a personal digital assistant (PDA), an audio/video player, a digital camera/video camera, a pointing device, an electronic book device, a gaming device, or any combination of the foregoing.

For example, under a case that the speech interaction device is the intelligent speaker, the speech instruction may be “play the song XXX of the singer XX” and the like, and the speech interaction device may query a corresponding song and play the song to the user after the speech signal is correctly recognized.

In the interaction procedure with the speech interaction device, the speech interaction device is generally waked up through a wake-up word, and then enters into an interaction state. The speech interaction device may support the multiple interactions at one wake-up. In a scene with the multiple interactions at one wake-up, after the speech interaction device is waked up, as long as the speech interaction device is in an operation state, such as making a sound, the user does not need to issue the wake-up word again, but may directly interact with the speech interaction device. In this way, an interaction threshold is reduced, and an interaction desire of the user is improved. In some embodiments, when the interaction belongs to a query category, such as asking about the weather, the user may continue the interaction without waking up the speech interaction device again within a time period after the speech interaction device finishes answering.

The speech signal 110 is transmitted to the management device 120 for processing. The management device 120 determines whether the speech signal 110 is a command which is issued by the user and used to be executed by the speech interaction device based on the received speech signal 110. If yes, the management device 120 sends a semantic result 130 including an execution instruction or a semantic result 130 including content to be obtained to the speech interaction device for processing.

In some embodiments, the management device 120 may be a computing device in a cloud that processes speech data uploaded by the speech interaction device. In some embodiments, the management device 120 and the speech interaction device are the same device. Therefore, the speech signal 110 may also be processed by the speech interaction device that receives the speech signal 110. The speech interaction device directly recognizes whether the speech signal 110 is a command to be executed. In some embodiments, the management device 120 includes, but is not limited to, a personal computer, a server computer, a handheld or laptop device, a mobile device (such as a mobile phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a media player, etc.), a multiprocessor system, a consumer electronic product, a small computer, a mainframe computer, a distributed computing scene including any of the above computers or devices, etc.

It should be understood that, the scene illustrated in FIG. 1 is exemplary only, and is not a specific limitation for the present disclosure.

FIG. 2 is a flow chart illustrating a method 200 for speech interaction according to embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, the method 200 may be implemented in a device illustrated in FIG. 6 . The method 200 for the speech interaction according to embodiments of the present disclosure may be described below with reference to FIG. 1 . For ease of understanding, detailed data mentioned in the following description is exemplary, and is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present disclosure.

At block 210, a management device 120 may determine text information corresponding to a received speech signal 110. As an example, the speech signal 110 from a user may be converted into text information, such as, “listen to Jay Chou's song at 8 pm”.

At block 220, the management device 120 may obtain label information of the text information by labeling elements in the text information. In some embodiments, the management device 120 may label an entity element in the elements. The entity element including at least one of a time, a number, a person name and a place name. As an example, the management device 120 may label “today” in a sentence “how is the weather today in Beijing” as time and label “Beijing” in the sentence “how is the weather today in Beijing” as place.

In some embodiments, the management device 120 may also label a domain of the element based on a predetermined knowledge base. As an example, a concept of the domain may be labeled by combining a domain knowledge base and a predetermined scene knowledge (the concept represents the label information here). The concept of the domain may include an entity concept of the domain, such as a singer “Jay Chou” and a song in a music domain, a TV play, a movie, a cartoon, an actor and the like in a video domain. The concept of the domain may also include a non-entity concept of the domain, such as “listening” and “song” in the music domain, “watching” and “video” in the video domain, etc.

In some embodiments, the management device 120 may also label a replaceable element in the elements based on a context-free grammar. As an example, for text information of “Call A”, the “A” may be labeled as a contact concept based on the context-free grammar.

In addition, in order to avoid ambiguity or mislabeling, context ambiguity resolution may be performed based on pre-determined and offline trained entity resources.

Alternatively or additionally, a K-optimal path algorithm may be employed to exclude a lower ranked and redundant candidate concept, to facilitate to accelerate concept derivation.

In some embodiments, the management device 120 may also obtain a final candidate concept sequence through a concept specification. On one hand, the concept specification may facilitate to reuse a sub-concept, including an one-to-one upper-lower concept specification (e.g., labeled concept “singer” may be specified to “person”), and a many-to-one combined concept specification (e.g., labeled concept “fit”+“scene (e.g., before sleep)”+“listening” may be specified to “scene”). On the other hand, the concept specification may also accelerate the concept derivation by reducing inverted candidates.

At block 230, the management device 120 may determine first intention information of the text information based on the label information. In some embodiments, the management device 120 may determine a plurality of candidate intention information corresponding to the label information based on a mapping relationship between the label information and the intention information. As an example, inverted intentions may be extracted based on a sequence of labeled concepts to obtain a candidate intention list. The labeled concept and index information of the intention are constructed in advance. For example, an intention of “playing music” may be extracted from concepts labeled with “song” or “listening to a song”.

The management device 120 may select the first intention information from a plurality of candidate intention information. As an example, the management device 120 may remove a part of the candidate intention information from the plurality of candidate intention information under a case that the part of the candidate intention information among the plurality of candidate intention information does not satisfy a predetermined constraint condition. As an example, each candidate intention may be derived in sequence and pruned in combination with a pruning strategy. The skilled in the art should understand that a labeled concept sequence in which the concepts do not overlap with each other is a path, and the pruning strategy is the predetermined constraint condition for the concept sequence.

In some embodiments, the predetermined constraint condition may be a corresponding relationship between the labeled concept and the intention, or, the predetermined constraint condition may be whether an order of the labeled concepts (information units) is correct (e.g., the order of information units in the label information is correct), or the predetermined constraint condition may be whether the labeled concept has a plurality of values (that is, whether an array format is supported, e.g., the information unit in the label information has a plurality of values).

It should be understood that, the candidate paths may be ranked and the top-k candidate paths may be selected from the candidate paths, and a ranking condition includes a coverage length, a n-gram probability, a concept weight and a concept number of the concept sequence, and the like. When a corresponding intention in the candidate path may be further specified to a concept, the concept derivation may be continued. Therefore, the method supports to recursively derive the intention.

The management device 120 may convert a path with a score greater than a threshold value into a semantic tree, an intention corresponding to the path is taken as a root node, and a sequence of concepts (i.e., label information) in the path is taken as a first-level node.

At block 240, the management device 120 may determine a semantic of the text information based on the first intention information and the label information. Generally, domain information may be determined directly based on the intention information. Since slot information is a subset of the label information, the slot information may also be determined based on the label information. Therefore, the management device 120 may generate the semantic of the text information from the determined domain information, the intention, and the slot information.

In this way, a semantic tree integrating the domain information, the intention and the slot information may be obtained by labeling each segment in input text information with a concept, and combining and deriving the concepts based on a predefined scene knowledge, thereby deriving a semantic result 130 conforming to the speech signal 110 more flexibly than a conventional technology.

FIG. 3 is a flow chart illustrating a procedure 300 for determining a semantic according to embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, a method 300 may be implemented in a device illustrated in FIG. 6 . For ease of understanding, detailed data mentioned in the following description is exemplary, and is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present disclosure.

At block 310, the management device 120 may determine first domain information and first slot information of the text information based on the first intention information and the label information. In some embodiments, domain information may be determined directly based on the intention information. Since slot information is a subset of the label information, the slot information may also be determined based on the label information. In addition, a configurable semantic tree may be serialized to convert tree semantic results into a horizontal construction.

At block 320, the management device 120 may generate first semantic information of the text information based on the first intention information, the first domain information, and the first slot information

At block 330, the management device 120 may determine the semantic of the text information at least based on the first semantic information. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the semantic of the text information may be determined in a plurality of ways. For example, FIG. 4 is a flow chart illustrating a procedure 400 for determining a semantic according to embodiments of the present disclosure. For ease of understanding, detailed data mentioned in the following description is exemplary and is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present disclosure.

At block 410, the management device 120 may determine second domain information and second intention information of the text information based on a text feature representation associated with the text information. In some embodiments, the text information may be converted into the text feature representation and input into a trained first neural network model to determine the second domain information and the second intention information of the text information. Preferably, the first neural network model may be a deep neural network (DNN). Alternatively or additionally, the first neural network model may be a neural network (NN), a convolutional neural network (CNN), a recursive neural network (RNN) or a self-attention neural network, etc. In this way, a correlation characteristic between the domain and the intention may be fully learned.

At block 420, the management device 120 may determine second slot information of the text information based on the text feature representation associated with the text information. In some embodiments, the text information may be converted into the text feature representation and input into a trained second neural network model to determine the second domain information and the second intention information of the text information. Preferably, the second neural network model may be the deep neural network (DNN). Alternatively or additionally, the second neural network model may be the neural network (NN), the convolutional neural network (CNN), the recursive neural network (RNN) or the self-attention neural network, etc.

At block 430, the management device 120 may generate second semantic information of the text information based on the second domain information, the second intention information, and the second slot information.

At block 440, the management device 120 may determine the semantic of the text information based on the first semantic information and the second semantic information.

In this way, problems such as high noise, high redundancy and high colloquialism appeared in a far-field speech recognition text may be solved, and a fast response speed may be extremely given consideration to. On one hand, a correlation feature between the domain and the intention may be fully learned, on the other hand, the number of models may be reduced and the response is sped up.

In some embodiments, a real-time intervention mechanism may also be integrated, and a plurality of levels of black/white lists such as text information, a keyword, a grammar and the like may be employed to freely interfere with semantic results of three granularities of the domain, the intention and the slot on line, thereby further ensuring a fast, accurate and stable response to a product requirement and ensuring online user experience.

In some embodiments, speech-semantic integration confidence technology that integrates a rule and a depth learning model may also integrate advantages of each acoustic confidence and a semantic analysis result, and make a final result judgment for the human-machine/non-human-machine interaction by considering information such as context and a client state. In the solution, with existing acoustic confidence technology, a local monosyllabic acoustic confidence, a whole sentence monosyllabic acoustic confidence, a whole sentence acoustic characteristic acoustic confidence, a semantic analysis result, a state of the preceding text, a language model score, etc., are normalized to one-dimensional or multi-dimensional input features in the neural network model. A training set is constructed and the neural network model is trained based on a large number of label results of online data. The neural network model may learn advantages of input features such as acoustic and semantic, and fuse input information such as context and an end state to generate the final judgment result for the human-machine/non-human-machine. The neural network model may be the deep neural network (DNN). Alternatively or additionally, the neural network model may be the neural network (NN), the convolutional neural network (CNN), the recursive neural network (RNN) or the self-attention neural network.

With the method, actions to be executed may be determined based on the semantic after it is determined whether the speech is a speech interacting with the speech interaction device, such that an accuracy for executing a speech instruction during the speech interaction may be improved. Meanwhile, on the premise of performing multiple interactions at one wake-up, it may be ensured that the speech instruction is not mistakenly executed and user experience is improved.
